The atmosphere was a bit awkward, so Father Wen didn't know whether to reply, ”Okay, let's discuss this together,” or to say, ”No.”
Meng Qingyang didn't know what his expressionless father-in-law was thinking.
At that moment, Mother Wen, who had been fiddling around in the kitchen for a while, came out with four cups of tea.
Mother Wen placed the tea tray on the tea table and poured a cup of water. She said to Meng Qingyang, ”Oh, little Meng, there's nothing to entertain you with.” This is my first time coming to my house to try some of my mountain tea leaves. ”
Meng Qingyang had a good impression of Wen's mother, because compared to Wen Qingyang, Wen Qingyang's mother's amiable smile was simply too kind.
Meng Qingyang saw that Mother Wen was about to serve him tea, so he quickly went to get the tea from her hand. He said, ”Thank you, thank you, Aunt.”
As soon as her mother arrived, the atmosphere eased a lot.
Like all mother-in-law who had just met her son-in-law for the first time in the world, she pulled Meng Qingyang along as she questioned him incessantly.
”Little Meng, you look so handsome. Where are you from?”
”Auntie, I'm from C City.”
”Aiyo, the tofu in C city is not bad. When I was young, I wanted to go there and learn to make tofu. ”
Mother Wen then asked, ”How many people do you have left in your house?”
”Just three bites.” Me and my dad and mom. ”
”Oh, oh ~ Then your family's relationship is quite simple. ”I wonder what your parents are like?”
”My father is a businessman. My mother is at home. She didn't go out to work.” Meng Qingyang didn't say that his father was a famous entrepreneur in C City. His mother was a guest at all the banquets in C City.
In any case, he, Meng Qingyang, was going to marry Wen Zhizhi. He promised that his relationship with his parents wouldn't bring her any pressure or trouble, so he didn't say anything.
Mother Wen thought that if she could do business so that the mistress didn't have to go out and do things, then she was sure that her family was well off. She was a little worried that Wen Zhizhi would be bullied if she married into the family.
Meng Qingyang noticed that Papa Wen had been listening in on their conversation, but didn't seem to want to join in. He was afraid that Papa Wen wouldn't care about what Zhizhi said about the 'marriage', so he didn't say anything.
Taking advantage of the fact that Mother Wen's father was around, she hurriedly told the two elders, ”Uncle, Auntie, this time, I came back with Zhi Zhi because we are not young anymore and wanted to come back to discuss the marriage with the two elders.”
Meng Qingyang paused for a moment and then immediately said, ”Uncle, aunt, before I came, I was worried that you would not let me in.”
Both Mother Wen and Father Wen found it hard to believe. Such an outstanding son-in-law, how could they not allow him to enter? Mother Wen quickly replied, ”Little Meng, you're a good kid.”
”Thank you for your approval, Auntie.” Meng Qingyang continued, ”I've always liked Zhizhi a lot. I've liked her since college, but I didn't have the courage to tell her. Last year, we coincidentally met again in C City. I think it was a blessing, so I took this opportunity. ”
”Zizhi is a good girl, my parents know that. Of course, the first time I came here and wanted to take away all of your precious treasures, I truly did not do well enough. ”
Meng Qingyang lowered his attitude.
”However, aunt and uncle, you can rest assured. I will definitely treat Zhizhi well. I will always pamper her. I hope Uncle and Aunt can grant our wish. ”
Meng Qingyang's words completely dispelled the bad impression that he had had of his father and mother.
The first time you came here, you wanted to marry my daughter.
